Phew, thanks for the heads up.

I was thinking about getting it sometime.
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] Angelusz:
Thanks for the heads-up, but: it's impossible to install something to a ROM. It's not accessible from within WM. It can however install itself to your windows folder, have an active background thread (making it impossible to uninstall until you terminate it) and modify registry keys to implement itself.

All reversible, yet, if so, indeed annoying.
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] de Wolfe:
I actually hate realplayer on the PC because it wants to mess up the whole machine... I'd never let this crap mess up my baby ;)
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] thuhoan:
yea i couldt get rid of the realplayer either, so i did a hardreset. now i found this thread 2 late loll
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] strboy:
I call my Xperia my baby also...my girl hates it..lol

and realplayer = no no
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] AbdullaBHR:
Same case my friend

I installed everything i wanted and then decided to install Realplayer to play some vids that TCMP doesn't. So i didn't like it and wanted to unistall it. but that little f***er wouldn't let go of my precious:mad:
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] lp640:
I was using my alternative handset the Samsung Innov8 as well as my Xperia X1 and the Innov8 would go straight to real player whilst from its default browser. so annoying, when the X1 would just play vids using internet explorer or opera.

Flickr Droid: Keeping your Dream looking fresh.

Hey guys,

Just wondering if anyone has used Flickr Droid on here?

Homepage: http://dazbradbury.googlepages.com/

Cryket link: http://www.cyrket.com/package/backgroundflicker.app

Twitter: http://twitter.com/dazbradbury

I'm looking to see if people want to collaborate, so that when they upload nice G1/Magic wallpapers to Flickr, they tag them with a unique name...

That way, I can set the default tag in Flickr Droid, and anyone using the app can set-up the auto-update feature so new images posted with the tag get automatically pushed to the phone... keeping it looking fresh!

Any takers, let me know!

Cheers,

Daz.

ps. I know the app costs 50p, but to be honest, I'm really looking to just get my developers fee back. Seriously strapped for cash? Check out post 8 for an xda-dev special!
[G1 Apps and Games] dazbradbury:
OK, seeing as there is little interest here, anyone like the idea of scrapping the viewer/gallery, and releasing a free background wallpaper changer based on the same concept?

If it's straight forward enough, then I suppose it would make a good "lite" version.

Feedback/Requests would be much appreciated!

Cheers,

Daz.
[G1 Apps and Games] dazbradbury:
Serious design change, much more usable.

Only had positive feedback so far... would love people to give it a go, and with free refunds, why not?
[G1 Apps and Games] dazbradbury:
Hey guys, just a quick update to say I've made a few changes behind the scenes, but also added auto-correction to the search field.

Hope you like it!

Daz.
[G1 Apps and Games] dazbradbury:
ps. Trial now available.

[G1 Apps and Games] ido:
will love to see a free version ;p
[G1 Apps and Games] dazbradbury:
Sorry, Double post.
[G1 Apps and Games] dazbradbury:
Ok, for those of you who would love to see a free version, and genuinely like the product, but are

seriously

strapped for cash... Go buy Flickr Droid. Leave a review, and sign it with the name used in your google checkout account. PM me here on xda, and I'll refund you the money! How does that sound?!

An XDA-Dev Special. :)

Daz.
[G1 Apps and Games] dazbradbury:
Just updated the background updater. Should be much more precise now. You set a poll time, and the app will check for new images exactly in the next however many hours/days set, repeatedly. Perfect!
[G1 Apps and Games] brandenk:
I dont know anything about this app but because you are willing to offer it for free to those in need I will at least go buy it and give it a try.
[G1 Apps and Games] dazbradbury:
Cheers Branden, what did you think? Making pretty frequent updates at the moment, so any recommendations and I'll get onto them!
[G1 Apps and Games] dazbradbury:
Updated a fair few things... Check out the website for more info:

http://dazbradbury.googlepages.com/

Cheers,

Daz.
[G1 Apps and Games] Erickomen27:
Great App!

But One Suggestion Can You Make The Wallpaper Update Daily? Like Everyday A New Wallpaper? Or Is That Already There And I'm Missing It?
[G1 Apps and Games] dazbradbury:
Thanks!

Basically, you can set the auto-update to check for a new image every day. Just go to the settings menu, set the poll time to 1 day, and hit OK.

Whether this actually updates your wallpaper or not depends on your search. The app will check Flickr once a day, see if any new images match your search, and if so, update the wallpaper.

If you can suggest a better method, let me know and I'll code it in in the next update!

Cheers,

Daz.
[G1 Apps and Games] dazbradbury:
Just an update, the full version now has a setting for a random image. Thus ensuring the image is updated...!

[G1 Apps and Games] dazbradbury:
Just updated the look, and usability of the program a fair bit... Hope you like it!
[G1 Apps and Games] dazbradbury:
Another big design change, also improved rotation compatibility.

Think this will be my last big change for a week or so...

Cheers,

Daz.
[G1 Apps and Games] dazbradbury:
Just added a search box on the main screen (with an option to turn it off!).

I feel the app is finally at a pretty good stage. :)

Please let me know if you're having any problems...

Daz.
[G1 Apps and Games] FuMMoD:
Great app but one thing i dont like is that when it updates pictures they come out blurry as a wallpaper.
[G1 Apps and Games] dazbradbury:
Could you elaborate? The app actually downloads the image at full resolution before setting it as a wallpaper. The image you see is the full res image as on flickr, which normally is much higher than the res of the phone...

Maybe there is a bug I can't find. If you could give a photo (or search criteria) as an example, I'll take a look!

Cheers,

Daz.
[G1 Apps and Games] Jefpier:
With this app can we upload photos to Flickr?

If the answer is no, is there an app for that?
[G1 Apps and Games] dazbradbury:
At the moment no, you can't. In fact, I don't use the flickr API at all. However, in the next couple of weeks I might go about implementing it.

For now, you could try:

http://www.cyrket.com/package/com.macrospecs.flickr (99c and not cupcake compatible.)

http://www.cyrket.com/package/lysesoft.bucketupload

or http://www.cyrket.com/package/com.pixelpipe.android

I've not used them, so can't recommend any...

Good luck!

Daz.
[G1 Apps and Games] Jefpier:
Thank you...
[G1 Apps and Games] NPerry:
Pixelpipe would be the best bet, What I use. Also just added video support as well.
[G1 Apps and Games] dazbradbury:
Just to inform you all I've made a few changes, including speed enhancements...!

Cheers,

Daz.
[G1 Apps and Games] dazbradbury:
Just implemented tilt control...

Can now scroll through your images using the accelerometer!

Cheers,

Daz.
[G1 Apps and Games] dazbradbury:
Tweaked the tilt controller and a few other things.

Full version is slightly ahead for the moment, not making any changes for a few days now.

Cheers, Daz.
[G1 Apps and Games] dkb218:
Give it sometime Daz. It's a cool app and will take off.
[G1 Apps and Games] dazbradbury:
Thanks, I'm pretty relaxed about the way it's going though. It's something I designed simply to keep my mind ticking whilst on the job hunt, obviously I would like it to do well, but unfortunately couldn't allow developing to cost me money, hence the price tag!

I think I just enjoy implementing new ideas/things to play with. Hence the reason I'll always implement people suggestions where possible. Hopefully that model will work well!

At some point I'll streamline it all, make it super snappy and super robust. Not until it's feature filled though!
[G1 Apps and Games] dazbradbury:
Well, the answer is now YES!

After a bit of work and some testing, the app can now upload to your flickr account!

Enjoy!

Daz.
[G1 Apps and Games] dazbradbury:
Updated trial, although trial comments always seem to be negative!

Made a few big background changes too, hopefully speeding things up further.

Latest version = 1.7.6

Cheers,

Daz.
[G1 Apps and Games] dazbradbury:
New to Flickr Droid:

Location-based search, see who's taking photo's nearby. Earlier today I made use of the very accessible Location service available in Android, implementation took no time at all, and now Flickr Droid can "Search Nearby".

Hope you like it! Daz.
[G1 Apps and Games] dazbradbury:
Done, and done. Little more effort than I expected as I wanted to use the inbuilt photo viewer WITHOUT saving to the media store, but made it work.
[G1 Apps and Games] dazbradbury:
Implemented, been meaning to get round to this...

I have implemented account activation, just working on more features. For now, you can finally search for those NSFW pictures!
[G1 Apps and Games] Paladin27:
Hey this app looks really great, I'm going to buy it from the market right now. I'm a total Flickr addict. There's a couple things I'd REALLY love to see in a Flickr app....

1. Notifications for new Flickr Messages and Photostream activity

2. Ability to download an entire set at a time to the phone and have it be saved in a nice organized fashion on the SD Card. The example I immediatly think of is my own photo stream on Flickr. I take photos prolificelly and it's such a PITA to have to re-size photos on my desktop and make folders and transfer files to the SD card. I'd rather just have an option in Flickr Droid where you could open a SET or right click a set name and then have "Download Set". Have a preference choice where you set the default target save size (since I really don't want original size on my phone. This would be SOOO useful to me! I love to show people my photos but it takes freakin forever over GPRS/EDGE to show anybody a photo in my stream on Flickr via any apps or the browser. Need them cached locally. Thanks for listening! If you implement this I would be forever grateful!
[G1 Apps and Games] brandenk:
Well its not really my type of app, I like to set my wallpaper to my theme and then just leave it alone. That said, the app works great and does exactly what it is supposed to. Even tho I could have saved a buck since I dont use it I decided to signup for a flickr account and I am trying to use it instead of my usual photobucket.

Summary: Great app for those that use Flickr
[G1 Apps and Games] dazbradbury:
Hey guys,

Thanks for the ideas and your thoughts. Have been away for a couple of weeks (job interviews galore), but will get onto some improvements in the next few days.

Will keep you posted on what I decide to implement.

Cheers, Daz.
[G1 Apps and Games] nanu*1:
Hi Daz,

I notice the photos that have been uploaded do not carry exif data, is this something you will be implementing? Great App by the way!

:D

Nanu
[G1 Apps and Games] dazbradbury:
Hi Nanu,

Unfortunately at the moment I'm rather pressed for time. I have accepted a job offer and am trying to organise a move to London!

I will add this to the ever-increasing TODO list though.

Hope you continue enjoying the app.

Cheers,

Daz.
[G1 Apps and Games] ^tyrant^:
what happen the trial version?
[G1 Apps and Games] dazbradbury:
I took that off a while back. Seeing as I'm soon to be employed full time and development is slowing down, I think I will go to a Free/Donate model, hence no need for the trial.

I imagine I will be changing things around in a month or so.

Thanks,

Daz.
[G1 Apps and Games] typedink:
I was wondering, does this download the full high-res image, or just the image that uploaders allow? Does it take into account the uploader's settings? Or is it just stealing the image?

I don't mean to sound rude or anything, but I'm just wondering. I upload photos to Flickr and have it set to a certain size, and would hate to have that setting bypassed. Be it my photos are not these drop dead famous photos lol, but still it's just something I'd like to know.
[G1 Apps and Games] jorhett:
What searches are valid?

I have tried dozens of searches and the only ones which seem to work are userid searches.

Is there any valid way to say userid=jorhett,set=vacation or something like that?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] gm112:
To be honest, the only two IM clients for the AT&T Fuze I've experienced so far is the one included with the stock firmware, and Slick. I prefer the stock firmware more. Does anyone have this app extracted? Or is there a better one they can recommend?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Captain_Throwback:
If you have a data plan (which you should if you have a Fuze), two free IM clients you can use are Palringo and BeeJive (right-click & Save Target as on those hyperlinks).

If you REALLY want that "OzIM" I think it is, I might have it floating around to post for you (actually, I have an AT&T ROM floating around I can yank it from). But I'd recommend looking into other solutions, personally (because doesn't the stock solution use SMS to deliver messages?).
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] gm112:
That would be really nice if you could :). So far I like palringo. And yeah, I do have a data plan, but it's very limited.

I knew that people could message you if you binded your AIM/MSN account to your mobile phone. That's just not good enough to me, though, because I'd have to wait for someone to contact me in order for me to get a hold of them. If there's an SMS-based solution that can fetch your buddy list and act as an IM Client, sure! I'll go for it. I didn't think there was an SMS-Based solution other than binding your account. That would be good for me since I have unlimited texting enabled.

Thank you so much for your help so far. I really appreciate it :).
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Thresher:
OZim is weak in my opinion. It uses TEXT messages instead of the network traffic.

IM+ is the bomb. I spend a lot of time messaging and all of the other clients seem lackluster.

Give it a trial whirl.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Captain_Throwback:
Ask and you shall receive:

OzIM - 4shared link

That being posted . . .

I have to agree w/Thresher. SMS based IM solutions (to me, anyway) just waste my Text Message allowance. But if your data plan is limited, I guess that may be a better option for you. I have unlimited Data, personally, so I try to use as much data as humanly possible :).
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] gm112:
Thanks :D.

Oh? I had no idea AT&T had unlimited data plans. I have unlimited texting, but limited data. I wonder if I could have unlimited texting with unlimited data... hmmmm... Do you know how much does having an unlimited data plan cost? I could probably talk my mom into adding it into the family plan since my brother, sister, and I all have smartphones.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Captain_Throwback:
http://www.wireless.att.com/cell-ph...10009&LOSGId=&catName=Data/SmartPhone+Connect

Looks like unlimited data is $30/month, and unlimited data + unlimited messaging is $50/month.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] waynew73:
I agree IM+ is the best solution. My only issue with them right now is when will they add FaceBook IM as one of the options. I think they have it on the BlackBerry client, but haven't seen it on the WM client yet.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] rccola159:
Palringo has FacebookIM if you haven't tried it.

Also, you can probably stick your SIM in a dumphone for a couple days, and either go to a corporate store or go into the OLAM and add the unlimited media net internet (I'm not sure about the price now but I pay $15 a month). After it kicks in just stick the SIM back into the Fuze and everything will work fine.

[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] gm112:
For family plans it looks like it's about 40$/month for unlimited data + unlimited messaging. That's good. Thanks for the help!

Looks like I'll have to get IM+ once I get my data plan setup. Thanks for the help, everyone :).
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] pyraxiate:
+1 for IM+

Ive been using IM+ for the last 3 yrs. Wouldnt trade it for any other IM client :D

Beejive is a close free alternative , but still nowhere near as clean. Well worth the few dollars ! ( plus you can transfer the same license to another devce when you but a new one and also IM+ has free upgrades to new software versions! )
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] drieves1:
I agree IM+ was worth the $40 for me 4 years ago. Beejive good free one.

Hey, nhvoltage, what is that picture of the HTC mini phone on your skinzone site?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Thresher:
Even if you do have unlimited texting I feel that OZim is more prone to problems as a result. For instance; I was having a problem with mine, uninstalled it but then began receiving tens and eventually hundreds of texts relating to OZim and logging into/out of a service. It was kind of nutty. Had to reinstall, relog in and make sure I was logged out officially before I uninstalled.

I'm not trying to bang on OZ, it actually did work pretty well when it was working.

I had problems with some services understanding who it should display as my friends. I had to put all of my IM contacts into a creatd MOBILE category in order for them to show.

Just curious, has anyone tried fring?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] GustavTheLion:
Beejive IM rocks!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] BrandNewLP:
If you have unlimited data I recommend Palringo. I use it on my Touch Pro and it uses very little memory and the actual response time is not delayed. Some stock IM software have a horrible delay and they just aren't very good to use if you are talking to multiple people on multiple IM Apps ex: yahoo, aim, msn. But Palringo is a free software that uses very little memory. Highly recommended from me. :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] TechnoHippie:
I've messed with every version of Fring that's come out. It *does* work for the most part, but other app installs can screw up the fonts in it. My biggest complaint about it is that the Sip client (voip) that's built into it doesn't accept DTMF tones - which makes the voip side of it 100% useless to me.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] mistergreen:
Nice thing about Palringo is it can start automatically and runs very quiet in the back ground. They also have a desktop client as well.

The only downside is I can't find a way to customize the sounds.

Beejive is too heavy on the battery to leave on all day.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] darkshad01:
5.0 is the only cab I have for O.Z. and I put in the cab for palringo and Octrotalk they both work great but you have to sign up for either one.

hae buddies im planning to get a new elf... i just want to know weather the colors of the phone has anything to do with the resolution. i just wanted to know weather thers any difference because of 64k colors...
[Touch GSM General] cocoaju:
Resolution has nothing to do with the colours. Most HTC phones only comes in 65k Colours no matter what screen resolution you have. I wish there was more, 16million colours will be perfect. :D
[Touch GSM General] vinoob:
16 million is the highest as of now rit... i think moto aura has it... it would have been better if elf had it... k then how is the color coming.. i heard like yellow looks orangish n stuffs if the colors are less... any idea...
[Touch GSM General] cocoaju:
The more colour you have the more precise the colour is on the screen. I won't say yellow looks orange but I would say that because the spectrum of colours are more, the colour will be more sharp. If you at an iPhone and a PPC phone, you will see that the iPhone looks more colourful and sharper. That is why an iPhone looks better.
